    Neither of those imply "collapse," just that the economy could be doing better than it is. There's a vast continuum between "collapse" and "red hot." Canada's economy is doing just…

    Citation needed. Canada's economic indicators are all extremely healthy, despite the trade war tantrum from its southern neighbour.

    I am in Canada. I cannot legally host defence workloads in the United States, even if I wanted to (I most certainly don't).

    So, if I'm understanding correctly, this is just for lower bandwidth transfers of full BF16 weights over the wire, not for serving, correct? Have you benchmarked the performance ag…

    More like $500k, but that's not an unreasonable price for a medium sized enterprise to pay. I have an RF engineering background, a nice mmWave vector network analyzer can easily la…

    You can even go a step further and run the container in a VM, such as with Docker Sandbox or the krun runtime in Podman. There's also smolvm which is a nice minimal microvm manager…

    Not my field, but since they use SQUIDs I suspect most of the volume is taken up by cryo equipment. So, maybe if someone eventually discovers a room temperature superconductor.

    Okay buddy, that was a Gish gallop if I've ever seen one. The risk is real. The math isn't complicated, you could stand up a basic debris simulation in a few hours with numpy from …

    VLEO addresses the risk, sure, but the new Starcloud space datacenter hype machine isn't going VLEO, it's going 600-850 km. Those altitudes are in the years to decades range for de…

    Nobody is arguing that space isn't big. The argument is space is big but dynamic, and launching enough stuff up there means that over a sufficiently long time horizon, you will hav…

    Not at all, it can be handled via international treaty. Frequency allocations for civilian satellites are already handled this way, a UN body (the ITU Radiocommunication bureau in …

    Eh... no, not really. At low altitudes (<500 km), sure, but much above 600 km you are starting to look at decades for a passive deorbit depending on solar cycle and ballistic coeff…

    I mean, presumably, the tax would apply per-spacecraft with a price adjustment for orbit lifetime and how busy a particular orbit is, so a small constellation of 5-10 short lived m…

    My issue is we likely can't use AWS (non-US, CLOUD Act concerns + export control concerns).

    Ooh, I hadn't seen these yet! That looks quite compelling, my only hesitancy would be what the software support looks like. But 1 TB of memory for $110k is really intriguing - I mi…

    Anyone done any benchmarks on the NV4FP quant? Seriously considering pitching an 8 x RTX 6000 Pro box at work to run GLM-5.2 in an air gapped environment.

    Thanks so much for building smolvm! I liked it so much that I vibe coded a little bash wrapper around it to handle creating ephemeral VMs for Pi: https://github.com/neuroblaze/smol…

    As with most legal hacks, the courts figured this one out long ago :). If someone is trying to dig into their competitor's trade secrets via discovery, the court offers multiple wa…

    Most likely, Papermark would compel Corgi to disclose the source code during discovery.

    Setting aside how shortsighted it is to fire your employees to replace them with AI, Ford also screwed up by firing the wrong employees. LLMs work best in the hands of experienced …

    I wonder if Nico will be feeling so cocky when Papermark gets their general counsel involved. The public Twitter shaming was clearly an attempt to resolve this without litigation, …

    Yep, agreed. Main issue in Canada is a notoriously slow and stingy investment ecosystem. Resource-wise we're incredibly well positioned.

    Ideally yes, but we know people don't RTFA - there's a reason that initialism dates back to early Slashdot. The paraphrase is doing a lot of heavy lifting to convert it to ragebait…

    The tweet was fine - it was directly addressing Corgi's claim that they had "vibe coded" DataRoom when they had copied and pasted it from Papermark. The problem is the OP chose to …
